Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow Americans! To the rest of you: May the remainder of your week be a delight. To *all* of you: Thank you for being here! This site would not exist without every single one of you, and we're deeply grateful for your support every day -- not to mention your smarts, good humor, and warmth. We are so lucky to have you.

At Lainey, [JOSH JACKSON HAS A NEW GIRLFRIEND?!?!?!](https://pubx.co/gXooNX?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) (She's named Jodie Turner-Smith, and she's about to play Grace Jones in the new Marvin Gaye biopic, *and* she's also in the new Lena Waithe-penned romance. AND per these photos, she and I own the same pair of sunglasses, so we'd clearly get along. INVITE ME OVER FOR BEERS, YOU GUYS!)

This is [an amazing piece about Nirvana's "Nevermind" at the New Yorker.](https://www.newyorker.com/culture/touchstones/an-appreciation-of-nirvanas-1991-album-nevermind?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

[TOMS gave five million dollars to charities working to end gun violence](https://www.fastcompany.com/90270094/why-toms-is-taking-a-stand-to-end-gun-violence??ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) and they figured out how to do it in just 12 days. Guess I'm gonna buy some TOMS! \[Fast Company\]

This is a mess, at Business Insider: [LuLaRoe is facing mounting debt, layoffs, and an exodus of top sellers, and sources say the $2.3 billion legging empire could be imploding.](https://www.businessinsider.com/lularoe-legging-empire-mounting-debt-top-sellers-flee-2018-11?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

SO RELEVANT TO OUR INTERESTS, at The Strategist: [The 100 Best Pens, As Tested by Strategist Editors](https://nymag.com/strategist/article/best-pens-gel-ballpoint-rollerball-felt-fountain.html??ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). I have notes!!!!

At The Outline: [Welcome to the Witch Capital of Norway. ](https://theoutline.com/post/6613/vardo-norway-halloween-steilneset-memorial??ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)Don't mind if I do.

This is a horrifying read with a happy ending, and I cried reading it: [How My Brother Survived The Camp Fire. ](https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/janellehanchett/paradise-california-camp-fire-brother-missing?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)"You tell yourself he’s an Eagle Scout. You tell yourself he’s level-headed. You tell yourself it’s possible to think your way out of a firestorm. You tell yourself these things and you believe them not at all." (Again, [if you can give to the Camp Fire victims, please consider doing so](https://www.kqed.org/news/11705542/how-to-help-camp-fire-victims?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)*.* It has been an unimaginable tragedy. Thank you so much.)

Quite a read, at Broadly -- this is kinda old, but I just saw it, and the subject is timeless: [The Victorian Occultist Accused of Killing Men With Her Mind](https://broadly.vice.com/en%5Fus/article/mbp7pb/the-victorian-occultist-accused-of-killing-men-with-her-mind?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). Good for you, girl.

Also at Lainey: [It's Mandy Moore's wedding dress!](https://pubx.co/UX9HnJ?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) (And other interesting bits and pieces.)

This is some weird-ass behavior, via ELLE: [Woman Discovers a Stranger Has Been Recreating Her Instagram Photos for Almost 2 Years](https://www.elle.com/culture/celebrities/a25228823/dundee-student-instagram-copycat/??ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). Including her captions!

At The Atlantic: [The Fleeting Magic of Scholastic Book Fairs](https://www.theatlantic.com/education/archive/2018/11/scholastic-book-fairs-magic/575809/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

Speaking of books! It's End of the Year List Time, and here's [the New York Times's 100 Notable Books of 2018](https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/11/19/books/review/100-notable-books.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

And, at Smithsonian, this is neat: [Mary Katharine Goddard, the Woman who Signed the Declaration of Independence.](https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/mary-katharine-goddard-woman-who-signed-declaration-independence-180970816/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) She sounds pretty rad, and also bedeviled by irritating men.

At The Mary Sue: [Why Were We So Into *Cruel Intentions*?](https://www.themarysue.com/why-cruel-intentions/?utm%5Fsource=web&utm%5Fmedium=fuv&utm%5Fcampaign=linkswap) (Spoiler: It's because of SMG.)

Fascinating, at Longreads: [The Fault in Our Stars: On Fake Celebrity Interviews](https://longreads.com/2018/11/15/the-fault-in-our-stars-on-fake-celebrity-interviews/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). In their words, "\[f\]ake celebrity interviews have been around for years, but Germany has seemingly become one of the largest exporters." Say what?

Not a fan of 2018?[ Here's Science on why 536 was ‘the worst year to be alive.’](https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2018/11/why-536-was-worst-year-be-alive?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) It does sound pretty bad!

At The Goods: [Don’t buy your friends an abandoned Spanish village, no matter what Gwyneth Paltrow says.](https://www.vox.com/the-goods/2018/11/16/18097230/goop-gift-guide-2018-spanish-village?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

Finally! We got a request on Twitter today, and I invite you to HAVE AT IT: Fug National OhanaCat asked for suggestions for movies to stream over the long weekend. What have you got?
